im thinking 3 or 4 mile runs during the week maybe 3-4 times a week then one long run on the weekend along with some cross training. I hope to train up to 9 miles and just let the last mile kick in during the race!

Thank you!

I wonder if i can return Turbo Jam... (I've done insanity for 17 days and i can handle that.. its just i hurt my ankle then knee) i should just continue with day 17 today.

Yeah i have a beach body coach... i'm just about 4-5 days behind i guess i could just catch up..

Well i ordered turbo jam to try it out.... then i realized there was turbo fire.. maybe i should of ordered that.. I'm stuck at day 17 insanity because i hurt a knee & ankle that got better now im getting over athletes foot from showering and putting the same sneaks on after.. that was dumb..

I do already own nike running shoes but i might have to give aerobic shoes a try.. i'm so unsure

I need a good jump mat & shoe recommendation if anyone has any links i'm about a size 8.5 women shoes.

Beachbody has a beginner program for slim in 6 (weeks)

i have some sort of mat but its really flimsey and from jumping on it .. its falling apart

Aerobic shoes would be best but getting fitted would be even more proper right? i cant do insanity barefooted i may need a better mat considering im doing it on a concreate floor with a weather rug on it so the landing isnt exactly the best either.

Right now i have easy tone shoes on http://www.amazon.com/Reebok-Womens-Easytone-Reeinspire-Toning/dp/B003GDJP9A/ref=sr_1_19?s=shoes&ie=UTF8&qid=1360770306&sr=1-19&keywords=EasyTone and the bottoms are kinda like this so i can see the uneven balance.

I think i'll get a new pair of shoes right after work! i really wanna complete this! you have no idea.. i took it slow yesterday so im gonna have to take it slow today and suck up what i didnt burn. I'm not the most coordinated but i average at 400-425 cal burned from insanity a day... Yesterday i only burned 300 and its…

I should probably check into shoes.. i have a pair of running shoes... not aerobic shoes but havent been using my r unning shoes i've been using my shoes with an uneven bottom its circled off and the edges dont have much support which makes sense to me

I also have Turbo Jam i can pick up on if this gets me hurt too bad..

I really like the workout... is there any sort of vitimin or supplements i should be taking ( I started drinking shakeology everyday for proper nutrients)

Yeah thats true.. i think the day 15 fit test is what messed me up by jumping around so fast!

Last year i was taking kickboxing classes which were great too maybe i should get back into that again.

What do you recommend? Should i be lifting more than cardio?

I havent came up with my workout masterplan.. I used to live on the elyptical & it worked out my whole body and now i cant even stand on there for 5 minutes... a year ago i would last a half an hour like nothing.. All my muscles turned to fat... oh its horrible!

i think the calorie counting this is overwhelming me.. (it never did before) but when i get overwhelmed im a bottomless pit... not sure if that makes sense.. i lost 75lbs a year ago (pregnancy weight)

I"m currently 5'4 ... about 127lb its been fluctuating.. I wanna be back down around 120

Well i havent been running but its a goal.

When i was pregnant i went from 140 to 230 back to 117 a year ago! its been a crazy ride

Aw TYVM :)

I'm 5'4 approx 127lbs as of today... i wanna be 120 like i was almost a year ago... that & all my muscle turned into fat :( i have weddings to be in & i dont wanna look like crap!

So i've decided that im gonna work towards a 10k which is a smaller goal (i have jeff galloways 10 k training plan) which is 13 weeks long and i can learn to run 6.2 miles which is half way and if i need to take longer than 13 weeks and push it to 15 weeks that will be okay!

I have done 2 ; 5k's .. .im obviously going to train its a matter of spreading out 13.1 miles in 37 weeks!

Thanks everyone!

19 week training plan..

I can run 3 miles on a good day
